Steve sells half of his comic books and then buys 6 more now he has 14 comic books

ddd [48]

Let b be the initial amount of books. Steve sells half of his books, so the number of Steve's books become

$b \to \dfrac{b}{2}$

Then, he buys 6 more, so the number increases by 6:

$\dfrac{b}{2} \to \dfrac{b}{2}+6$

This number is now 14, so you have

$\dfrac{b}{2}+6 = 14$

Subtract 6 from both sides:

$\dfrac{b}{2} = 8$

Multiply both sides by 2:

$b = 16$

4/5 of a number is 32

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out an equation

4/5(x) = 32

Step 2: Solve by dividing both sides by 4/5

x = 32/(4/5)

<em>Use KCF (Keep Change Flip) if you do not have a calc.</em>

x = 40

Is FGH ~ JKL? If so, identify the similarity postulate or theorem that applies.

Leokris [45]

Yes, for triangles to similar two angles have to be the same, in this case, they both have 55 and 30 degrees), this makes the third angle the same. Triangles angles add up to 180 degrees and if you subtract 30 and 55 from 180..
180-30=150-55=95
95+30+55=180

Pleaseee helppp with thissss asapppp

As we know that the standard equation of circle is ${\bf{(x-h)^{2}+(y-k)^{2}=r^{2}}}$ , where <em>r</em> is the radius of circle and centre at <em>(h,k) </em>

Now , as the circle passes through <em>(2,9)</em> so it must satisfy the above equation after putting the values of <em>h</em> and <em>k</em> respectively

${:\implies \quad \sf \{2-(-1)\}^{2}+(9-5)^{2}=r^{2}}$

${:\implies \quad \sf (3)^{2}+(4)^{2}=r^{2}}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 9+16=r^{2}}$

After raising ½ power to both sides , we will get <em>r = +5 , -5</em> , but as radius can never be -<em>ve</em> . So <em>r = +</em><em>5</em><em> </em>

Now , putting values in our standard equation ;

${:\implies \quad \sf \{x-(-1)\}^{2}+(y-5)^{2}=(5)^{2}}$

${:\implies \quad \bf \therefore \quad \underline{\underline{(x+1)^{2}+(y-5)^{2}=25}}}$

<em>This is the required equation of </em><em>Circle</em>
